At what distance from the Sun would you be able to cook egg on the hull of a spaceship? I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

Calculate for hard and soft boiled.
And explain it in a non-mathematical way. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

in how much time do you want to fry your egg? you can do it at as little as 50C if you want to wait 20 minutes heheh
I won't make it easy for you so I'll say, it shall be so edible that you wouldn't know the difference between one that has been cooked on Earth or in space. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

Tsadkiel, since I am feeling mean and I want you to suffer, I want you to spend ten hours on Graham's number. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

Aren't you always? Are you still mad because I made fun of your signature? Awww, It's ok... it really does look cool!
No, feel free to make fun of my signature any time you want, you can have that.
Since we make fun of you all the time. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

Graham's number is the largest, finite number ever used in a mathematical proof (which i am still trying to wrap my head around... i'm terrible at abstraction). it has so many digits that if you were to somehow be able to store a single digit of Graham's number in plank volume, you would not be able to contain all of the digits within the universe... (a plank length is the length traveled by a photon in one plank second. a plank volume would just be this cubed). sorry i can't give you more on this, i really am bad at abstract mathematics. also, tomorrow is another day a the bladder factory, so keep the questions coming and i will try to answer them tomorrow night.
Oh, I wasn't expecting anything from you. I just wanted you to suffer. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

If you believe in something as nonsensical as souls, I am disappoint.
But to answer your question, when you have solved the mathematical question of eternity, you will also figured out the heat capacity of the human soul as you supposedly spend in a eternity down there. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

I didn't go for sarcasm. I went with bait AND HOW DO YOU LIKE THEM APPLES? I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

I want to disintegrate people with a flashy death ray gun. How do I go about doing that?
Because I don't really feel like waiting for a nuclear holocaust, survive inside a vault, wait even longer and one day when I am out wandering about in the wasteland, stumble over a crashed UFO where one of the dead aliens has a flashy death ray gun....

Though I believe that anything is possible through Science, because our understanding of the Universe is all Theory
I hope Tsadkiel won't mind me trying and I am sure he will correct me if I am wrong. But what I remember from school, the reason you'll never achieve FTL is because of mass. The larger the object is, the more energy you'll need.
I think you'll reach like 99.9% of traveling at the speed of light but you are looking (I think) at infinite mass and infinite energy for that one procent. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

Anyone's guess at this point. But not really a concern of ours since it is about, oh, four billion years into the future. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

I think Selinate just told you to come up with proof that perpetual motion does not exist, that the theory is wrong rather than dribble a little and splutter out that perpetual motion is wrong. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

Tsadkiel wrote:Whitehound wrote:Tsadkiel wrote:because that's how the word perpetual is defined? i don't understand what the problem is here. we have defined perpetual motion as unending or unchanging motion because that's what the word perpetual means... The problem is that you have no definition. Something that is unchanging may have no beginning and no ending, but simply exists, but something that is unending may only not have an ending. As soon as your description of a motion includes how it will end will it always raise the question of how it came into existence. It is easy to accept an idea like something having no beginning and no ending, and we understand it as an abstract. It is easy to accept an idea of something having a beginning as well as an ending. This is however not the case of something having an ending but no beginning and something having a beginning but no ending, and therefore we reject it. Your physics, or your "description of nature as a science" if you will, turns into dreams and nightmares for our human comprehension and it is not what we want. You will not be able to explain nature by saying that something simply "popped" into existence or that it disappeared without leaving a trace of where it went. People will reject physics like this and instead continue looking for better answers. i just TOLD you the definition. what i told you is the definition of perpetual motion. motion that continues unending / unchanging. that is what the word perpetual means. you are going way WAY off topic here. you have also started referring to yourself as we...

In any case, I am still talking about motion and physics. I cannot imagine why Tsadkiel would step out of the discussion just because my questions aim at his use of words. His answers can only be as good as the words he uses to give them.
I can't really be arsed to ask you to elaborate on that. Because it doesn't make sense.
There is also a fine line between asking a person questions and pestering a person, especially when you have been told the definition of the term a few times already. Are you really that incapable of connecting the dots on your own? I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

How about the OJ287 Quasar?
The inspiration for my question actually comes from a cartoon where the supervillian uses gravity to consume.

I'm pretty sure people would never "get sucked into space from the surface of Earth." By the time the pull of the black hole was sufficient to pull us off the surface, it would have destroyed the planet. There would be no Earth from which to pull us...for that matter, there would be no "us" at that point. Just a lot of rocks with little blobs of carbon and ice mixed in.
Which is a very plausible scenario of what would happen, still let us entertain the "sci-fi" aspect of it. I'd kill kittens and puppies and bunnies I'd maim toddlers and teens and then more |

Quasars are highly energetic active galactic nuclei, which essentially means that the accretion disk of the black hole IS a galaxy. I looked up OJ 278 and based on observed orbits this quasar has an estimated mass of around 18 billion suns... if this thing were anywhere in our solar system we, and the rest of the galaxy, would literally be torn apart XD
